Tending To Space Meditation (Space Series #1)

Tending to Space is a guided meditation that invites you to gently care for your inner landscape—just as you might tend to a garden. Through soft breathwork, body awareness, and a grounding visualization, you’ll nourish the parts of yourself that may need attention, presence, or rest. This practice is about slowing down, noticing what’s growing within you, and offering care without pressure to fix or change. A spacious and calming session for anytime you feel called to reconnect.

Hello and welcome.

My name is Tara LaValle and this is a guided meditation created to support you wherever you are in your day.

I'm so glad you're here.

When you're ready,

Go ahead and settle in.

Whether you're seated or reclined,

Find a position that feels grounded and supported.

Allow your eyes to soften or close.

And begin to sense the presence of your body just as it is.

Feel the support beneath you.

Bring your awareness to your breath and just notice how you're breathing in this moment.

No need to change or do anything different.

Rather,

Just notice how the breath is showing up for you.

Follow your inhalation.

Follow the exhalation.

Begin to tune in to the rhythm of your breath.

Observe where you notice the breath in your body.

Maybe it's at the tip of the nostrils.

Maybe in the chest or the torso.

Maybe you notice the breath all the way down in the low belly.

There is no right or wrong.

Again,

We're not looking to change anything in any way.

Rather,

Just begin to let the mind come to this point of focus.

Do some breath work now to further stimulate the parasympathetic nervous system.

Rest and digest.

I'll invite you to inhale in through the nose and as you exhale,

Purse the lips as if you were blowing out through a straw and let the air pass through those lips softly and naturally.

Inhaling in and exhaling through the mouth as if you were blowing out through a straw.

Try not to force the air out but just let it move as it will.

You might notice that with this practice your exhalation gets a little bit longer.

Take your time here inhaling and exhaling.

Let this breath ground you.

Let it soothe you.

Let it tend to you.

Take 3 more rounds inhaling in through the nose and out through the mouth.

Release this practice when you're ready.

Take a moment to just notice.

Feeling any effect thus far.

Let go of any effort.

Feel into this moment.

Now bring your awareness into the body.

Imagine that you're in the landscape like a spring garden.

Not everything needs to bloom right away.

Some things might still be rooting.

Some just beginning to wake up.

Move our awareness through the body.

Let each area soften as you bring that gentle focus without judgment or comment.

Begin up at your forehead.

Bringing that awareness to the eyes,

Jaw and shoulders.

Let go of your fears.

Softening these areas with each breath.

Move into the arms and hands.

Moving the awareness down into the chest and then the belly.

See if you can feel the breath moving through your body.

Let go of any tension or gripping in the chest and belly.

Letting these areas soften and relax.

Move your awareness down to the hips,

Legs,

And shoulders.
